Nitrous Oxide
This is a light sedative, most often called laughing gas. It is given in light doses mixed with oxygen and has a very calming effect. You are completely capable to drive and/or resume your normal routine afterward. The American Dental Association has more information that you can find at www.ada.org/en/member-center/oral-health-topics/nitrous-oxide.

The Wand
The wand is a computer-assisted anesthetic system that can greatly reduce the “pinch” felt during local anesthetics. It has shown to work great for children and patients fearful of getting numb. For more information, you can go to their website at www.thewand.com.

3Shape Trios Intraoral Scanner
We now have intraoral scanning that will make those messy impressions a thing of the past! We use the 3Shape Trios scanner which is able to scan your teeth, create a virtual 3D model in real time, allow us to review it, and make updates as we need. We are able to use this technology for Invisalign, crowns, orthodontic devices, and implants. For more information on this technology you can visit their website at www.3shape.com/products/trios/intraoral-scanners.

It is important to us to make you feel comfortable and re-assured while you are here. Please tell us of any needs you have, and we will work hard to accommodate them.
